Default Cheapie 2.1 Speaker Set with static in left speaker

While dumpster diving I found a 2.1 speaker set. Static in the left
speaker.

I swapped speakers, problem persisted. I swapped the op amp out with a
known good one, same thing.

I'm new to this kind of thing, so I'm a bit perplexed as what to try next.
It's not the source, I've tried several different sources. Wiring appears
to be okay. Sound to the subwoofer and the right speaker is okay.

Look at the mixer IC. It generally does tone control/balance/volume. Cost
about $4 to replace. If there are any discrete transistors, and I doubt
there are, try tapping them with something non-metallic and see if it
affects the sound. Otherwise, throw it away, ain't worth your time.
